Tonight is a big night in American politics. According to CNN, Illinois Senator Barack Obama has won the Democratic nomination, and is now the presumptive nominee of the Democratic Party. It is an incredible moment in what has been a meteoric rise to the forefront of American politics for Mr. Obama. Meanwhile, it is also the end to a remarkable candidacy by the ever-resilient Hillary Clinton. The New York senator appealed to people all over this great nation, and brought some excellent ideas into the campaign. And so, tonight represents a triumph for one great candidate, and the defeat (although, she hasn’t conceded yet) of another.

The Oblivion will have plenty more to say about tonight’s news, but first we want to give you guys a chance to respond, and share your thoughts. Thoughts about tonight? About possible VP candidates? About Hillary’s campaign? Feel free to share.
